Conveniently located on the eastern periphery of the greater University Towne Centre and Sorrento Mesa submarkets, this multi-building project was purpose-built for its research and development use. The area, which is home to several San Diego biotechnology companies, benefits from its nearness to a robust local amenity base within a short drive, as well as most San Diego locations due to its adjacency to the I-5, I-805, I-56, and I-15 transportation networks and associated communities. It is located on the border of West Sorrento Mesa and Sorrento Valley. The property has direct access to the I-805 freeway, is within walking distance to key retail amenities, and is proximate to UC San Diego and other key research institutions.

The presence of the University of California, San Diego, Scripps Research, Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute, the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, and other world-renowned research institutions has helped fuel the region's biopharmaceutical and medical device growth. Combined, these academic centers were awarded $800 million in NIH grants in 2016. That year, the San Diego life sciences industry employed 45,949 people, many of whom are clustered around the La Jolla and nearby Sorrento Valley areas, which are home to offices and research facilities for numerous biotechnology companies. Major biotechnology companies like Neurocrine Biosciences and Illumina are headquartered in San Diego, while many biotech and pharmaceutical companies, such as BD Biosciences, Biogen Idec, Integrated DNA Technologies, Merck, Pfizer, Élan, Celgene, and Vertex, have offices or research facilities in San Diego. San Diego is also home to more than 140 contract research organizations (CROs) that provide a variety of contract services for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.
